Default Best place for rim repair on the peninsula?

Hey guys, I put a 1 to 2 inch deep dent on the inside lip of one of my 18x8's a few weeks back, and I finally have the dough to get it fixed. The dent is from a pot-hole, and the tire will only hold about 50% air before it escapes from where the dent is. These aren't aluminum, aren't painted, plain ole silver & heavy as sin. I heard only aluminum rims are hard to fix and alloys aren't? Anyways, these are definantly not aluminum, I'd be more inclined to think cast iron.

Anyways, I was looking for advice on the best local place for rim repair? Specificly on the peninsula? I'd drive southside if I had to, I live in newport news. Also .. what kinda figure might I be looking at? $75?
